Disgraced former Sky Sports presenter Richard Keys has urged Rangers to “correct their stupidity” over “chancer” Russell Martin<\/a>.<\/p>\n The pressure has been piled back on the Ibrox boss after the Light Blues kicked off their Europa League campaign a 1-0 home defeat to Genk<\/a>.<\/p>\n Former Celtic<\/a> striker Oh netted the only goal of the game to rub salt in the wounds.<\/p>\n Now Gers face the humiliation of going BOTTOM of the Scottish Premiership table ahead of their trip to Livingston on Sunday.<\/p>\n A big win for basement boys Aberdeen over Motherwell could see them leapfrog Rangers on goal difference.<\/p>\n However, the Ibrox club could also launch themselves into the top half with a win depending on how Saturday’s results go.<\/p>\n Either way, Keys, now working for BeIn Sports in the Middle East, thinks it’s obvious Martin is in the wrong move and it’s well past time to swing the axe.<\/p>\n He posted on X: “There\u2019s only one thing worse than a Board appointing a chancer who is clearly the wrong man – and that\u2019s stubbornly hanging onto him. What are the owners at Rangers<\/a> thinking? At least Leverkusen acted decisively to correct their stupidity.”<\/p>\n Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n Leverkusen sacked former Man Utd boss Erik Ten Hag after just two Bundesliga games in charge.<\/p>\n The ex-Old Trafford manager was only appointed by the Germans in the summer, but club chiefs had seen enough to give him the bullet with the season still in it’s infancy.<\/p>\n Follow Record Sport on Twitter<\/a>, Facebook<\/a> and Instagram<\/a> for all of the up-to-the minute breaking news, video and audio on the SPFL, the Scotland national team and beyond.<\/p>\n You can get all the news you need on our dedicated Rangers<\/a> and Celtic<\/a> pages, and sign up to our newsletters<\/a> to make sure you never miss a beat throughout the season.
